ABSOLUTEL: Actually , after any dentL /oral surgical procedures the NSAID'S (Motrin, Advil, ibuprofen, Aleve (naproxen) ) work better than just PAIN KILLERS" .. either narcotics, or non-narcotic like tramadol. If Tramadol doesn't give you Nausea , you can even take both Advil & Tramadol together../good luck

Yes, you can: Yes, you can take Advil (ibuprofen) along with Tramadol. There is no drug interactions and these drugs together potentiate each other's pain-relieving effect.
